Runa Sumaiya Barua

Master of shoemaking, now teaching apprentices

  • 🇮🇳 Agra, Uttar Pradesh, India
  • Hillcrest Repairs
  • 1978 to 1986
  • English, Bengali
I've worked in shoemaking from 1978 to 1986. I learned from my aunt and passed what I could on to 380 apprentices. Apprentices come in nervous and leave proud. That's my favorite part. I like to keep things simple and honest.
